and you start to back pedal, we did it in syria. and we eventually took action on the surge in afghanistan and eventually took action in deposing moammar gadhafi in libya. but it took a while for the president to wiggle himself there. >> yeah, it feels at times like this as it did in syria as you point out that the president sort of gets inclination to go for it and then, you know, has his assessment. they may say they had marines and special ops forces on the top of that mountain according to reports for 24 hours today, they came back and said apparently it's not as bad as we thought. these people aren't doing as bad as we thought contrary to every single report we have heard of the people who have actually talked to them about what's going on there and seeing the numbers of people that have been buried up on that mountain and lay dying unburied in many cases. it just doesn't match at all. it doesn't make any sense. >> well, it's a weird thing. the president likes to point out, well, we can't intervene in every humanitarian crisis.

parts of syria and iraq declared themselves a country. they committed an act of war against the united states. i think the president of the united states should now say we are at war with isis. everything goes. this is not about iraq's government. this is not about bashar al assad in the mask of syria. this is about us and then. we are at war with isis. >> the president is not going to say that. he's not even naming the mission in iraq. he's not even putting a name on that. he doesn't want to talk about the war on terror anymore. i think it would be great if he did that, but do you really think he's going to do that? >> this is not the war on terror anymore. what you have a is a detack to state committing an act of war against our state shs the united states. i want the president to know that the pressure is on him and even on the congress of the united states. we have to wage war. isis is coming to us with all of these british muslim extremists and americans who have snuck over there with american passports. it is unevidentable that this

but we have to be prepared frankly to do hot pursuit into eastern syria if necessary. i know that's a dramatic statement but this border is going to be used as a staging ground for months to come. >> why not look at pakistan and the problems we had with pakistan for the better part of a decade. we somehow, through these rose-colored glasses with blinders on, are saying that syria is one thing and iraq is another. they're the same thing to this islamic world. >> absolutely. >> they don't even exist anymore. >> you have lebanon. so it's a regional problem. 15,000 fighters. they declared it a country for crying out loud. this issue deserves a strategy and a regional strategy of containment and then slowly squeezing isis until the no longer represent a threat. >> part or our start is to support the kurds, the peshmerga in the north, very good fighters and very good friends of the united states for a long time. that said, we armed the iraqi troops. they dropped our weapons, and now they're in control of the people who are talking town the peshmerga. what if they break down
